On the one hand, I find this fascinating, and I am excited to see new CPython performance improvements here, with the experimental JIT work, and more.
On the other hand, sometimes, I feel like we might have missed something important.

Then, at some point along the way, we lost that, and I think it's sad that we lost that.
